註釋Each volume in the Ex Libris series provides a glimpse into the writings of a renowned Catholic author, introducing the spirituality and thought of a great man or woman of faith. Saint Edith Stein (1891-1942), also known as Sister Teresa Benedicta of the Cross, was born in Breslau, Germany, of devout Jewish parents. In adolescence, she became an atheist. She went on to study philosophy with one of the greatest thinkers of the time, Edmund Husserl, and became a prolific writer and lecturer. Her search for truth led her to become Catholic, and she later joined the Carmelite Order, where her writings took on a more theological and spiritual tone. In these excerpts from the writings of Edith Stein, discover the authentic beauty of her honest pursuit of truth, her sincere desire to sacrifice for the good of others, and her joyful and generous correspondence with friends. Questions for personal study and group discussion are also included. Book jacket.
